Topic: Rails Full Calendar

I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with rails3_fullcalendar (https://github.com/bokmann/rails3_fullcalendar) . I have downloaded this repo and it is exactly what i am looking for in terms of functionality. There are one of 2 things i would like to do with this

1) merge this with my current application so that users can enjoy this feature2) or re create the steps used to make this ( I feel this way i would learn more about how it works)

The only problem is i cannot find a guide that is suitable for someone relatively new to rails? Does anyone know of a guide for this or can someone suggest something similar

Re: Rails Full Calendar

Hi Brad

Thanks for the in depth answer, and yes it is rather intimidating to look at. I will try the steps you have described and let you know how it goes.. Just to give a slight update I have ventured into the inknown and tried something which kind of works, but no where near as powerful as full calendar..

I found Event_calendar https://github.com/elevation/event_calendar and follwed the quick start guide found in the wiki. What i have now is a basic functioning calendar that I can update events to, however only the title is updated to the calendar view, not the start time and end time ( Which is kind of the point)...

So i am going to follow your guide but would you be able to shed any light on the above issue?

Re: Rails Full Calendar

also you stated to move javascripts/jquery and stylesheets to the public folder. I am using rails 3.1 so do i need to move to the appropriate folders, ie make use of the asset pipeline. when moving stylesheets I had a message stating public/stylesheets is not a folder so have moved to app/assets/stylesheets

Re: Rails Full Calendar

ok done that, fired up localhost:3000 and i am taken to the default rails homepage ( also i tried moving *.css to public stylesheets like mv /home/richard14/Downloads/fullcalendar-1.5/fullcalendar/*.css /home/richard14/calendar/public/stylesheets/ and i got this error message mv: cannot stat `/home/richard14/Downloads/fullcalendar-1.5/fullcalendar/*.css': No such file or directory

# You can have the root of your site routed with "root" # just remember to delete public/index.html. # root :to => 'welcome#index'

# See how all your routes lay out with "rake routes"

# This is a legacy wild controller route that's not recommended for RESTful applications. # Note: This route will make all actions in every controller accessible via GET requests. # match ':controller(/:action(/:id))(.:format)'end

I have placed the *.css in the assets/stylesheets now, there is fullcalendar.css and fullcalendar.print.css
